<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ltrain, post: 929085, member: 24795&quot;]I had $8k in a retirement fund by time my 22nd birthday rolled around.&nbsp; It&#039;s not really worth having a portfolio with less than $1k, though, because commissions and fee&#039;s will eat it up in a hurry.</p><p><br /></p><p>FTR, good investing turned that $8k into $22k today, and then I was left a substantial inheritance by a deceased relative... By time I&#039;m 50, I should have well north of $2mm in that account.</p><p><br /></p><p>What would I do?&nbsp; Put it aside and wait until you have about $3k, then do a ton of research and pick a stock that has a solid dividend and isn&#039;t a blue-chipper.&nbsp; Mid-cap companies are a good investment, imho... a bit more risk, but returns can be fantastic, especially if you get a stock with a solid yield via dividend.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
